Ardmore's an inner ring suburb with an urbanish town center. I don't know if the original redevelopment plan were awesome, it's quite possible that they weren't for various reasons, but a lot of the opposition was basically due to the fact that it was 'too much,' as in adding too much density. And, no, turning the place into a
giant parking lot isn't going to give anyone any more reason to show up. That's what malls are for.
Like many business owners in Ardmore, he believes that many of the town's ills could be cured with one thing: more parking.
"That," he said, "might be all we need."
